And two people capable of using a weapon is a lot better than just one. Especially if we can get into a proper position. [she shakes her head a little, pushing hair out of her face again.] Don't sell yourself so short because of one incident. The situation would undoubtedly be different.

[He shakes his head at that and points at her a bit, even if he's not looking at her.] You say that now. I should point out my luck in staying in one piece isn't exactly the best. Even with the proper position.

[choselucky117]

[The corner of her mouth twitches downwards at that, and she sighs quietly. Luck in staying in one piece isn't the best? She's well aware of that.]

It has little to do with luck, sir. With proper weaponry and positioning, the numerical odds would be in our favor. That's not luck; that's planning.

[Luck is all well and good; it's saved John's hide more than a few times and it is a big part of why she chose him back then, but to rely solely on it? Sometimes that just doesn't sit right with her.]

[Which gets a bit of a look before he shakes his head.]

All the planning in the world can only get you so far, Cortana. Planning can make sure you know what you are doing, but for it to succeed, even the best of plans need luck.

[But that's the difference between them isn't it? He sometimes forgets she was an AI before being here.]

[Another sigh, this one louder. Sure, she's lost most of her processing power just by virtue of having a squishy brain and not a processing unit or dozen, but even she knows better than this.]

It doesn't hurt to have luck on your side, no, but relying on it like that? Is just asking for trouble. If you do your math right and plan correctly, the odds don't lie to you. From all my research, Lady Luck is too fickle to be counted on in war.

[Science and faith, meeting and headbutting again. At least she's nicer than her mother about it?]
